The Deadlift, Jump Ropes, and T-shirts!

"The deadlift, being no more than picking a thing off the ground, keeps company with standing, running, jumping, and throwing for functionality but imparts quick and prominent athletic advantage like no other exercise."
-The CrossFit Training Guide/Manual


Above: Coach Cheyne and Coach Josh demonstrate to the class how the barbell should stay close to/in contact with the legs throughout the movement and essentially travel straight up and down.

Today's WOD:
Deadlift 1-1-1-1-1

Then...
Max reps Double-Unders in 2 minutes
Max reps GHD Hip Extensions in 2 minutes
Max reps Double-Unders in 2 minutes

Just a few reminders for the remainder of the week:
1.  We only have a handful of Jump Ropes left, the rest have been pre-sold!  So, let me know ASAP if you want your very own Ultra Speed Cable Jump Rope (like the ones we have at the box).  They are 100% adjustable to your height and preference.  The rope is being sold for just $14.

2.  T-shirts, t-shirts, and more t-shirts!  Yes, the wait is over!  Our shirts should be arriving on Friday (at the earliest) or Monday (at the latest).  We have 2 different designs--both men's and women's fits as well as racer back tank tops for the women in the "Stronger/Faster/Better" design! All the shirts are American Apparel 50/50 blend! We will be selling shirts for $15 (cash or check please), so get them before they sell out!
